Hello together,

I am interested in your opinions and thoughts about this.

I have mentioned this before. The project needs to migrate away from Microsoft GitHub. The current target would be Codeberg e.V., which hosts Forgejo (a successor to Gitea).

I wonder if it might be a good plan to do the migration after the 1.6.0 release, which is scheduled for spring or early summer 2026.

I see no good reasons against it. Technically, I do not expect much problems. The migration works very well and offers several options. Logistically I also don't expect much problems. The repo at Microsoft GitHub will have a clear migration statement on top of the README file and will be set to read-only. I'll also inform all known distro maintainers about the migration.

Mirroring is definitly not an option. I would keep the repo on Microsoft GitHub available (but read-only) for a limited time (one or two years) and then remove it.

What do you think?

If you plan some donations around Christmas time maybe Codeberg e.V. might be a good choice.

Christian
